Putting a value on farmers' natural capital

Friday 28 October 2022

12:00 for 12:30pm

NSW is leading the nation, as the first State Government to join the global movement recognising the economic value of our environment.

According to the UN World Economic Forum, more than 50% of global Gross Domestic Product is dependent on nature, and Australia ranks fifth of 140 countries likely to experience the highest economic losses if environmental challenges are not addressed.

By investing now, NSW can play a fundamental role better valuing our natural capital. Join NSW Minister for Environment and Heritage James Griffin to learn about the opportunities available to landholders and managers through the state's Sustainable Farming Program and Natural Capital initiatives.

Mr Griffin has represented Manly in the Legislative Assembly since April 2017 and was appointed as Minister in December last year,

He is a conservationist, committed to protecting nature and rehabilitating ecosystems on the land and in the ocean. Mr Griffin wants to put Aboriginal land and ocean management techniques front and centre, and he’s committed to protecting and celebrating our heritage.

Prior to being appointed a Minister, Mr Griffin was Parliamentary Secretary for the Environment, Veterans and Health. He was part of the Legislative Assembly Committee on Environment and Planning, and is the former Chair of the Legislation Review Committee.
